The Lovers Card
You are the Lovers card. The Lovers card is about

union. Each of us carries in our DNA the

ability to be the opposite of what we think

we are. Often our romantic attachments grow

out of awe and respect as we see in another

the characteristics we repress in ourselves.

Society often presses us into molds of what

it thinks masculinity and femininity should

be. As a result, many of us associate with

our gender certain positive characteristics

and call others negative, when if these same

qualities were held by a person of the

opposite sex, our attitude towards them would

be reversed. Getting in touch with our inner

animus and anima, (Jung's terms for our inner

male and female), allows us to see the whole

of our personalities in a positive and

constructive light. When you draw The Lovers

card in a reading, you are working with

balancing these forces. Depending on where

the card is, you have either achieved balance

or need to. The Lovers could indicate a

romantic or even a platonic relationship. Ask

yourself is this is a positive relationship

that contributes to your growth as a complete

human being, or if it fills an emotional

craving within you that is actually

detrimental to your personal growth. Image

You are the Wheel of Fortune card. The Wheel of

Fortune continues one of the major themes of

the major arcana: balance. Here the universal

tendency towards balance is described by the

Law of Karma. Karma is your destiny as a

result of actions you have taken in the past.

For example, treating the elderly in a mean

fashion would result in you being treated in

a like manner as you age. This is because you

have introduced and perpetuated a mode of

behaviour that becomes an ingrained pattern

in your subconscious so that as an elder you

expect others to treat you with disrespect.

The Wheel of Fortune also operates on a scale

larger than ourselves. Our fate or destiny is

in part determined by factors beyond our

control. An obvious example is that you would

not be able to read these words without the

invention of the internet, which has impacted

millions of people who had absolutely nothing

to do with its creation. Luck describes these

external forces over which we have no control

and is the province of the Wheel of Fortune.
